Like tobacco smoke, marijuana smoke contains cancer-causing chemicals. There are 33 cancer-causing chemicals contained in marijuana. Marijuana smoke also deposits tar into the lungs. In fact, when equal amounts of marijuana and tobacco are smoked, marijuana deposits four times as much tar into the lungs. This is because marijuana joints are un-filtered and often more deeply inhaled than cigarettes.

Although it may be true that marijuana smoke deposits more tar into the lungs than tobacco smoke, current evidence does not indicate that the former results in proportionally greater deleterious health affects.

Does thc grow on marijauna?

THC is a chemical that forms "in" marijuana, not "on" it. The leaves, stem, and seeds contain the least amount of THC. The buds themselves contain a much higher concentration. And the trichomes (crystals and hairs growing off of the bud) contain the most THC out of the whole plant. In fact they are almost pure THC.
